For years (and years and years), the royal family famously followed the motto "never complain, never explain," which essentially supposed they had a blanket policy against airing their drama in public or ever commenting on rumors about them.
Clearly, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have not let that rule preserve them returned from being obvious with the public (see their Oprah interview, Harry's comments on The Me You Can't See, and his upcoming/already-controversial memoir, simply to name a few examples), but that doesn't suggest they sketch to officially weigh in on each rumor about them that receives buzz. Specifically, don't count on any legitimate comment from Team Sussex about the slew of allegations about them published in Tom Bower's Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the War Between the Windsors.
"You can’t reply to it all," royal expert Gareth Russell defined Us Weekly. "If you go out answering each and every single e book or allegation, it will consume your whole day. You won’t have spare time to devote to your personal mental health and your personal well-being."
Revenge included a long listing of sparkling allegations about Harry and Meghan and their royal exit, which include claims that Meghan used to be upset about her 2017 Vanity Fair cover and rumors that the Queen and Prince Charles had been irritated about her estrangement from her father, Thomas Markle, amongst others.
Russell says that publicly addressing the book's claims would surely just be a waste of time for Harry and Meghan.
"When you are as famous as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, there is going to be a lot of speculation," he explained. "It doesn’t always do everyone proper in public lifestyles to always be answering and rebutting these claims."
Still, Russell says Harry and Meghan's willingness to be candid about their lives and struggles—including struggles with different members of the royal fam—is going to be a massive section of their legacy.
"I assume Harry and Meghan will likely be remembered as the people who bury that [never complain, in no way explain] mind-set for themselves and for future generations of the royals," he added. "And that, maybe, is no bad thing."
